For some young Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, surfing seems the only way to escape from the ruins caused by air strikes, and ensure them a sense of freedom. Ibrahim, a 23- year-old lifeguard, dreams of inspiring his peers with his beloved sport, and crafting his own boards. While for Sabah, a 15-year-old girl in love with the sea, it is not that easy to break the Mediterranean waves.

A fascinating glimpse into existence in a conflict zone, this documentary depicts through thrilling scenes how surfing can free the mind and the body, while giving voice to a young generation on women’s rights, freedom of expression, and belief. The film, also observing the local socio-political situation, screened for the first time in Turkey at SALT Beyoğlu in June 2018.
